Question Is there a way to pause plastic scm until I want to push changes?

When I do profiler on the editor I see that the plastic SCM window is eating my performance, can I pause or disable plastic SCM?

I've been trying to close the window, but the window keeps opening by itself on some changes (like saving a scene/prefab).

(I'm not working with any other people on the same project, so I do not need the window to constantly update.)

 

Omg. Thank you, that's perfect!

I've got auto-refresh off, but yes, it seems to be working/refreshing something, PlasticWindow.Paint -> PlasticWindow.OnGui.Layout 50%, PlasticWindow.OnGui.repaint 50%.

 

The new version is giving me errors..

I toggled plastic into offline mode, removed like a bunch of files/folders, >5gb. Then I enabled plastic and now i cannot push my changes

 

My plan was to delete a bunch of things without the contact refreshing, and then let plastic refresh everything at once, while I go make food

 

Keeps happening;

I tried in the plastic GUI but it just keeps loading pending changes (+1 hour) so I stopped.

i downgraded one version of the version-control now to see if it would work, but same issue;
here are I think the correct log,
it's failing on deleting some of the files

 

i'm gonna check off the "Check the content to determine files as changed, not just timestamp" to see if that works

EDIT: It didn't.

 

this is the latest

 

..

 

it seems to be confusing files with each other;



these two are NOT the same .png, and it says it got "moved"

 

i cannot work please what should i do, how do I fix this asap, should i just go back a couple of versions or will that break stuff even more?

 

or can i change something herE?

 

Disabling this worked, and I undo'd some stuff and I can work again

 

Managed to get the same problem, but the changeset is smaller so the GUI spit out an error-code

i have no other users except me, i have no brances, it shouldn't be so hard just to upload my changes..

 

I got help from support.

Error 1:
-> Error when performing background operation: Object reference not set to an instance of an object
; The changeset is not possible to undo or to push.

It seems to have been solved by disabling the move detection.

Error 2:
-> Checkin cannot be done because some local changes cannot be processed
; The changeset is not possible to undo or to push.

There was simultaneously a move-change of content below a folder and a deletion of that folder.

solution: Removing the plastic.changes in .plastic folder worked.


Also making a new workspace would've fixed the issue.
